Press kit
Marks, type, and the rules for using them, plus company facts for anyone writing about The More Life Company.
Download the kit
Approved marks, type, color values, and company facts for journalists, partners, agencies, and the internal team. Download the complete kit, or take individual files from the sections below. Everything here is current; nothing on this page is a mockup.
Zip with all 14 marks in SVG and PNG, both typefaces with their licenses, and the usage notes.
Logos
Rules
The short version. Every line below is specified in full further down the page.
Do
- Reach for the square mark first. It is the right answer about nine times in ten.
- Use the files exactly as provided, in the colors they ship in.
- Keep the exclusion zone clear, and double it when anything sits beside the mark.
- Use the white variants on dark or photographic backgrounds.
- Prefer SVG wherever the medium supports it; use the PNGs for documents and slides.
- Ask before improvising. The contact is at the bottom of this page.
Don't
- Recolor, stretch, rotate, outline, or add shadows or effects to any mark.
- Place the ink marks on dark backgrounds, or the white marks on light ones.
- Redraw or retype the wordmarks, or rebuild the monogram in another typeface.
- Crop the square mark's field or change its proportions.
- Go below the minimum sizes. Under 24px the monogram stops reading.
- Lock a platform mark up beside the corporate mark.
Sizing
Clear space is measured against a feature of each drawing, not a fixed number of pixels, so the rule survives scaling. The dashed box is the exclusion zone; the mark beside it is drawn at its true minimum size on screen.
Square mark
Exclusion zone: 2x on every side, where x is the diameter of the dot after MLCO.
- Screen
- 24px wide
- 8mm wide
Horizontal wordmark
Exclusion zone: 1x on every side, where x is the cap height of the letters.
- Screen
- 140px wide
- 38mm wide
Stacked wordmark
Exclusion zone: 1x on every side, where x is the cap height of MORE.
- Screen
- 96px wide
- 26mm wide
Double the exclusion zone when another logo, a rule, or a page edge sits beside a mark. Nothing enters the zone: not type, not imagery, not a border, not a fold.
Backgrounds
Ink marks go on backgrounds at or above roughly 85% luminance. White marks go on everything below it. When a photograph crosses that line inside the exclusion zone, the mark needs a plate, not a shadow.
White (approved)
The primary surface. Ink mark, full contrast.
Ink (approved)
The reversed surface. White mark, full contrast.
Brand Blue (approved)
White only. The ink mark does not clear contrast on this field.
Brand Blue, ink mark (not approved)
Never. The mark disappears into its own brand color.
Mid grey (not approved)
Never. A mid tone leaves the white mark with almost no contrast and the ink mark only just enough. Pick a surface, not a middle.
Photography, plated (approved)
White mark on the dark end of the image, or on a solid plate.
Misuse
Every tile below is wrong. They are rendered from the real components with the mistake applied in CSS, so no altered artwork exists anywhere to be found and reused by accident.
Stretched or squashed (not approved)
Scale proportionally. Hold shift.
Recolored (not approved)
Ink, white, and Brand Blue are the whole palette for a mark.
Rotated (not approved)
Marks sit level. There is no angled variant.
Shadowed or glowing (not approved)
The marks are flat. Fix contrast with a plate, not an effect.
Outlined (not approved)
No stroke, ever. Use the mono mark where you need one color.
Below the minimum size (not approved)
The dot closes up and the monogram turns to mush. 24px is the floor.
Cropped or bled (not approved)
The square mark's field is part of the drawing. Keep it whole.
- The More Life Company
Retyped (not approved)
The wordmark is drawn artwork, not Geist set in caps.
Platform marks
- A platform mark names a technology, never the company. Where a reader needs to know who makes it, the corporate mark or the company name appears separately on the page, not locked up beside the platform mark.
- One color, ink or white, chosen from the background. These are single-color drawings; there is no blue variant and no accent color per platform.
- In running text the names carry ™ on first mention and sit in sentence case: Agrarius™, Quicksome™, Quicksol™. The drawn marks are for artwork, not for setting a name inside a sentence.
- Clear space and minimum size follow the horizontal wordmark: one cap height on every side, 140px or 38mm as the floor.
Color
Brand Blue
Primary. The square mark's field and the accent color.
- #0147F7
- oklch(0.503 0.265 263.457)
Ink
The wordmark and mono marks on light backgrounds.
- #131517
- oklch(0.194 0.005 248.091)
Typography
Two faces, both openly licensed, both free to install and embed. The TTF is the desktop file for design tools; the WOFF2 is for the web. Each download includes the license, which has to travel with the files.

How the type is set
- Section heading
- Geist Medium, clamp(2rem, 2vw, 2.75rem), leading 1.1
- The one heading that opens a section of a page.
- Subheading
- Geist Medium, clamp(1.25rem, 2vw, 1.5rem), leading 1.3

Do
- Set everything in Geist. Two weights: Regular for reading, Medium for every heading and label.
- Use JetBrains Mono for anything that has to align in a column, including tickers and hex values.
- Let headings size themselves with the clamp values above rather than picking a fixed size.
- Keep body measure under about 70 characters.
Don't
- Reach for Bold, SemiBold, Light, or any weight outside Regular and Medium.
- Set headings in the monospace face, or body copy in anything but Geist.
- Use a system fallback in produced artwork; embed or outline the real face.
- Set the company name in Geist and call it a wordmark. The wordmark is drawn artwork.
